Isamples of jewel bearings are: Eatch holes--clive, vacch holes-straight, pallet stones, roller jewels (jewel pins), and stones (caps), vee (cone) j ewels, instrument rings, cups, double cups, and orifice jewels. As used herein, the term " jewel bearings" includes "related itans." (2) "Related items" means other synthetic sapphire or ruby components. Examples of related items are pivots, knife edges, insula-tors, spacers, vindows, and striking surfaces other than pallet stones.

Each purchase order issued to the Plant under this contract shan include the prime contract number and date of the price list cited above.

Within 90 calendar days af ter the ef fective date of this contract the Contractor shan furnish to the Contracting Officer a cer-tification that the required jewel baarings were ordered pursuant to this clause. The Contractor agrees to notify the Contracting Officer promptly sf the rejection of his (or any subcontractor's purchase order in whole i l 3 4 8

If such a vaiver is granted, an equitable adjustment shall be made in the contract price or delivery schedule, or both, in accordance with the " Changes" clause of this con-tract. Further, the requirement for use (but not the requirement for purchase from the Plant) of jewel bearings may be waived by the Contract-ing Officer when such waiver is determined by him to be consistent with established policy. (c) The Contractor agrees to use to Langer-made jewel bearings in the production of subassemblies or and items under this contract or in his commercial production. (d) Whenever it is necessary for the Contractor or any subcontractor to redesign or reengineer jeweled items in order to satisfy specif 9. performance requirements, the Contractor or subcontractor shan provide in such redesign for the use of military standard jewel bearings. This requirement does not apply when the dimensional tolerances or configura-tions of military standard jewel bearings are such that their use in the product would prevent attainment of the required level of performance specified for the item. However, when one or more nonstandard bearings must be used to satisfy performance requirements of the jeweled item but military standard jewel bearings win function satisfactorily for other { applications within the same item, the item will be required to be rede-signed to provide for the use of military standard jewel bearings in such "other" applications. The Contractor or subcontractor is not.aquired to redesign a jeweled item solely for the purpose of converting from the use of nonstandard to military standard jewel bearings.

.== Covernment is entered into with the same Contractor. In this situation the requirement to purchase and use jewel bearings from the Plant will be vsived up to the amount of such excess jewal bearings in Contractor's possession upon submission of a written request by the Contractor. Such request shall contric documented evidence in support of the waiver of purchase and nonuse of such excass javel bearings.

App. 2168 (P.L. 91-379 August 15, 1970), or other statutory authority, the Contractor, in connection with this contract shall: (1) By submission of a Disclosure Statement, disclose in writ-ting his cost accounting practices as required by regulations of the Cost Accounting Standards Board. The required disclosures must be made prior i ) to contract award unless the Contracting Officer provides a written notice to the Contractor authorizing postaward submission in accordance with regulations of the Cost Accounting Standards Board. The practicas disclosed f or this contract shall be the same as the practices currently disclosed and applied on all other contracts and subcontracts being per-formed by the Contractor and which contain this Cost Accounting Standards clause. If the Contractor has notified the Contracting Officer, that the Disclosure Statement contains trade secrets and commercial or financial information which is privileged and confidential, the Disclosure State-ment vill not be ralsased outside of the Govar-t. (2) Follow consistently the cost accounting practices dis-closed pursuant to (1), above, in secumulating and reporting contract perf ormance cost data concerning this contract. If any change in dis-closed practices is made for purposes of any contract or subcontract S s

Such comp 14 - = shan be required prospectively from the data of applicability to such contract or subcontract. (4) (A) Agree to an equitable adjustment (as provided in the Changes clause of this contract, if sny) if the contract cost is affected by a change which, pursuant to (3) above, the Contractor is required to maks to his established cost accounting practicas whether such practicas are covered by a Disclosure Statement or not. (B) Negotiate with the Contracting Officer to determine the tarms and conditions under which a change to aither a disclosed cost accounting practice, other than a change under (4)(A), above, may be made. A change to a practice may be proposed by either the Government or the Contractor, providad, however, that no agreement may be made under this provison that will incrasse costs paid by the United Stataa. (5) Agree to an adjustment of the contract prica or cost allowance, as appropriate, if he or a subcontractor fails to comply with an applicable Cost Accounting Standard or to fo n ow any practice disclosed pursuant to subparagraphs (a)(1) and (a)(2), above, and such f ailure results in any increased costs paid by the United States. Such adjusta ment shan provide for recovery of the increased costs to the United States together with intarast thereon computed at the rate detarained by I the Secretary of the Treasury pursuant to P.L. 92-41, 85 S ta t. 97, or 7 percent per annum, whichever is less, from the time the payment by the 1 United Sates was made to the time the adjustaant is eff ected. (b) If the parties fail to agree whether the Contractor or a sub-contractor has complied with an applicable Cost Accounting Standard, rula, or reguistion of the Cost Accounting Standards Board and as to any cost adjustment demanded by the United States, such failure to agree shall be a dispute concerning a question of f act within the meaning of the Disputes clause of this contract. a* q

(c) The Contractor shall permit any authorized representatives of the head of the Commission, of the Cost Accounting Standards board, or of the Comptroner General of the United Statsa to==^e and make copies of any documents, papers, or records relating to compliance with the requirements of this clause. (d) The Contractor shan include in au negotiated subcontracts which he anters into the substpace of this clause except paragraph (b), and shall require such inclusion in an other subcontracts of any tier, except that this requirement shall apply only to negotiated subcontracts in excess of $100,000 where the price negotiated is not based on: (1) Established catalog or market prices of comunercial items sold in substantial quantities to the general public; or (2) Prices set by law or regulation, and except that the requirement shan not apply to negotiated subcontracts otherwise exempt froc the requirement to, accept the Cost Accounting Standards clause by reason of i 331.30(b) of Title 4, code of Federal Regulations (4 CTR 331.30(b)) or i 1-3.1203(a)(2) of Title 41, code of Tederal Regulations (41 CFR 1-3.1203(a)(2)). However, if this is a contract with an agency which permits sub-contracts to appeal final decisions of the Contracting Officer directly to the head of the agency or his duly authorised representative, then the Contractor shan include the substance of paragraph (b) as well. NOTE: (1) Subcontractors shall be required to submit their Dis-closure Statements to the Contractor. Bowever, if a subcontractor has previously submitted his Disclosure Statement to a Government Contracting Officer he may satisfy that requirement by certifying to the Contractor the date of such Statement and the address of the Contracting Officar. (2) In any case where a subcontractor determines that the Disclosure Statement information is privileged and confidential and declines to provide it to his Contractor or higher tier subcontractor, the Contractor may authorize direct submission of that subcontractor's Disclosure Statement to the same Government offices to which the Contractor was required to make submission of his Disclosure Statement. Such author-ization shan in no vsy relieve the Contractor of liability as provided in paragraph (a)(5) of this clause. In view of the foregoing and since the contract may be subject to adjustment under this clause by reason of any f ailure to comply with rules, regulations, and standards of the Cost Accounting Standards Board in connection with covered subcontracts, it is expected that the Coritractor may wish to include a clause in each such subcontract requiring the subcontractor to appropriataly idamnify the ,Co ntractor. However, the inclusion of such a clause and the terms thereof 9 e 9 4 4 8 e c,-

are matters for negotiation and agreement between the Contractor and the j subcontractor, provided that they do not conflict with the duties of the contractor under its contract with the Government. It is also expected i that any subcontractor subject to such idemnification will generany require substantiany simibr indenmdication to be submitted by his subcontractors. (e) The terms defined in Sec. 331.20 of Pa'rt 331 of Title 4, Code of Federal Regulations (4 CFR 331.20) sha n have the same meanings herein. As there defined, " negotiated subc'entract" manna "any subcontract except a firm fixad-price subcontract made by a Contractor or subcontractor af ter receiving i offers from at least two firms not associated with each other or such Contractor or subcontractor, providing (1) the solicitation to su competing firms is identical, (2) price is the only consideration _in selecting the subcontractor from among the competing firms solicited, and (3) the lowest offer received in compliance with the solicitation from among those solicited is accepted." 38.
